“Death penalties should be public, should be quick, it should be televised. I think at a certain age, its an initiation…What age should you start to see public executions?” -Kirk
Empathy for the other people attending that rally who had to see such a violent event. Some were there to cheer him on, so fuck them. But, others were there to try to debate him. It was dumb of them to play into his game and participate, but still, some will be leaving that event pretty traumatized.
I would argue that the average person refers to a mix of both when they use the word “empathy”:
caring about the other person’s pain
being there for them
trying to see things from their perspective
wanting the other person to be better and wondering how one could help.
Classifying one as “a terrible problem” and the other as acceptable seems (at least) a bit pedantic. Specially when it comes to language, a dynamic phenomena in which words mean what (the majority of) people deem them to mean.
The train of thought he talked about right when he said that was that in the past politicians said they feel your pain, even if they are an opponent. Now politicians try to make the case that people aren’t in pain.
In that comparison I linked one of the differences is sympathy is feeling pain as your own and another is acknowledging pain without feeling it at all.
I’m not saying I agree with his take, but context made the quote made me go from “this guy doesn’t care about others at all” to “grammar police sidenote where he wants people to say sympathy more” in my head
Context is important and I never heard or watched him at all so I wanted to share for people who were interested like I was.
Nah empathy is for the weak.
Well fuck. Now I have to actually have empathy for his death or he will get what he wants. 😭
have empathy for his children, who didn’t ask to be born into this
and uh I guess that’s about it
Empathy for the bullet too.
Yeah no way that thing walked away unscathed.
Well at least it wasn’t a waste.
He did say kids should see public executions.

Sounds reasonable.

Eh, we can start tomorrow.
You know what else causes a lot of damage? Getting shot in your facist neck.

TLDW is that he follows saying he prefers sympathy over empathy
TLDW. what would the difference between sympathy and empathy be?

Now finish the quote
I think all of his quotes are finished, now.
